"I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." Thomas Edison
I initially had this as a companion quote to the one a few days ago. In AA, it has been said that insanity is trying the same thing over and over expecting different results. I liked this quote from Edison because it makes me think of life as a large experiment.
If you try something that doesn't work, don't give up; change a little something and try the "experiment" again. But don't try the same thing over and over again and don't be discouraged.
Learn from your mistakes and you find something that doesn't work. You have failed when you learn nothing and give up.
Through Christ, we can get comfort for our failures and the grace to learn what doesn't work.

8 subscribers, probably mostly friends and relatives. Don't you get it yet?
Yeah, I am pretty excited about those 8 also. I know most of them personally.
I also know of several others who check out the blog, but don't leave any comments or let me know who they are.
I never expected this blog to do even this well, so I am content. I do this mostly for me, and hopefully God can use me to bless (or challenge) others.
Thanks for posting. Be sure to leave your name next time; I love to know who my readers are.
